Tea House

When you join us for tea at 8 Cats Cincinnati, you’re not just visiting a tea house—you’re stepping into a historic home that transports you back more than a century, to a time when tea was served in intimate settings inside private residences.

Your experience begins in our lounge, where you’ll be welcomed with a tiny teacup filled with a sample of one of our house-curated teas. From there, your party will be seated in either our Victorian Parlor or Dining Room, where you’ll enjoy the remainder of your tea service.

Guests are served a traditional three-tiered tray of freshly baked treats and savory bites, along with unlimited cups of our curated teas- One for each of resident kitties. During your visit, you can also look forward to warm fluffy scones being hand delivered, right out of the oven, served with fresh lemon curd.

We invite you to wander through the open rooms on our first floor and take in the charm of the historic mansion. Our resident cats will likely greet you upon arrival and may accompany you throughout your visit—they always enjoy gentle pets and treats from our treat jar.

For guests attending our Candlelight High Tea, the experience also includes a delightful soup and salad course in addition to the traditional tea service menu.

Come relax, sip, and savor a slower moment in a setting where history, hospitality, and a few friendly cats make the experience truly memorable.
